Rateliff

Hello, my name is Katelyn! I took a break from swaps for a while and creating in general, but I thought about it every day. I'm ready to get back into it again and I am so excited to see where my brain will take me!

I love to collage and meet new people. I love music and being outside, I have been plant based for 10 years and I love the 60s and all things vintage! I've been on postcrossing for 6 years now and have a 7 year long penpal who is my best friend🥰. It seems all of my friends become long distance so this passion of mine comes in handy often haha.

I am very excited to try out new means of mail, as it is my favorite hobby!

I love reading and nature, and my favorite colors are muted, like a dark muted red, blue, brown, and also silver.

My mini schnauzer Tori is my favorite animal, but bears, whales, and penguins are also favs.

As for shows and movies, I am obsessed with Outlander, Harry Potter, and Dreamworks movies such as The Road To El Dorado and Spirit.

My music taste is diverse, I love indie rock, classical rock, any Beatles song, and Harry Styles (my guilty pleasure). But I will listen to pretty much anything including country and metal.

I am mostly interested in swapping ATCs and postcards, however I will most likely experiment and explore this platform as I go on. Art will be primarily watercolor but I also love to draw and use multiple mediums.

I try to check my mailbox AT LEAST 2x a week!

• Happy Mail

Feel free to send me your current favorite songs!

I would be over the moon with anything you send to me, I love to see different styles and techniques and I am not picky with what I receive! However if you are looking for specifics, I love:

• vintage style
• cityscapes as well as landscapes!
• any nature themed craft
• paintings
• washi tape of any kind
• die cuts, ephemera
• any homemade paper or backgrounds
• any cleverly used stickers
• drawings
• layering!
• animals

I only have one dislike- anything Christmas if not applicable to the theme- and that's it!

Let's have fun! I'm excited to see what connections one can make through our common interests. It's hard to find like-people where I live who love mail just as much or even more than me! See ya around 😎
